Sad It ends, to start again

The child's remains in Alabama Orlando have been identified as Caylee Anthony's. She's now officially dead... and her mom's murder trial should officially start soon.

There is just so much possibility in a young child... to have it taken by one who should be taking care... my mind falters.

Default Re: It ends, to start again

The question I want to know is, how much did the grandparents know?

Also, why wasn't the meter reader's tip back in August ("Hello, police? I found a skull...") followed up better? I would've expected the cops to say "we'll meet you there so you can show us what you found" instead of "tell us where and we'll send a deputy, uh, sometime soon."


Nitpick: it's in Orlando FL, not AL.

Nitpick corrected. Apologies... Nancy Grace has seemed to cover it the most, and I just can't stand that woman...

I thought the skull was just found.... the meter guy reported a bag back in August, but not a skull.

A lot of hearts will be breaking (and I suspect have broken) over this...

I'm not aware of this case. Good they found the body, though. Hopefully it might lead to a conviction.

I too am ignorant on this. Perhaps one could placate us with a recent article?

Someone put together a Wikipedia article which goes over 'most everything you could want.

In summary, Caylee was a three year old girl who disappeared in June, and whose mom didn't report her missing until July. Mom's story has been comprised of half-truths and falsehoods, such as Caylee was dropped off with a sitter who had never met the family, at an address that hasn't been lived in for months... the works. It was also determined that a decomposing body had been in her car.

Incriminating web searches were done on the family computer (how to break a neck, how to make chloroform...), and Mom has been in and out of jail on this case. She was finally indicted for murder without a body being found, and now that a body has been found... may God rest Caylee Anthony's soul.

From this article:

Quote:
...the man picked up a plastic bag near the gas/electric meter only to have a skull tumble out and onto the ground.
Seems to me that would add some urgency to the police response to his call.

According to that article, the skull was found Dec 11. The original reporting (of a suspicious bag only) was back in August. And apparently the skull did add urgency to the police response...
